marylou Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Woke up this morning to find my s00b had been stolen while I slept. If anyone sees an '87 SW, light blue, Yakima bars on top and a bumper sticker in the rear window that say "Regime change starts at home" please feel free to call the cops. They suspect it may be in Everett due to a stolen car found close to my house this AM. Only cool part of the story: officer who took the report was nice enuff to drive me into work this morning. We had t make a stop to deal with a crrime in progress, my cop lady cuffed the dude and handed him off to the downtown guys, all while I watched from the car. It was like being on "COPS." Quote
catbirdseat Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Another Saab? Sorry to hear that. Wow that sucks. Quote
sobo Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Bummer about your car, allison. Did you all know that you can go down to your local PD and ask to go for a "ride-along" with an officer on duty? I did that a few times. The best one was when I selected southeast Yakima (local drugs/gangland sector) as the target cruise area for the Saturday night/Sunday morning shift. Lots of COPS action that night, lemme tell ya'!! Bad boys, bad boys. Watcha gonna do? Quote

Dru Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 That is so suck. An 87 Subaru is worth, like, at LEAST 500 dollars (I have a 90) Quote
gslater Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 Did you all know that you can go down to your local PD and ask to go for a "ride-along" with an officer on duty? Everyone should do this at some point, preferably in a skankier part of town. Warm summer nights are the best. Gives a whole new perspective on what cops have to face and put up with on a daily basis. Quote
willstrickland Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 That is so suck. An 87 Subaru is worth, like, at LEAST 500 dollars (I have a 90) '91 is worth $3211 US. Salvage value is only $250. I know this why? Because mine was totalled last week. Sorry about your ordeal ML. Sucks to walk outside in the a.m. and go..."Dude, where's my car?" Quote
tomtom Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 If anyone sees an '87 SW, light blue, Yakima bars on top and a bumper sticker in the rear window that say "Regime change starts at home" please feel free to call the cops. Aren't there, like, twelve thousand of these in Washington? Quote
Thinker Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 BUMMER ML. I feel for you. One of my coworkers told me today that he recovered his truck that had been stolen about a month ago. It was found near Granite Falls, totalled out. Quote
vegetablebelay Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 That is so suck. An 87 Subaru is worth, like, at LEAST 500 dollars (I have a 90) I just donated a 88 Quote
ridehikeclimbski Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 Sorry to hear about your car, hope you can find alternate transportation or at least recover your car in original condition and catch the bastards who stole it. I drive an 87 Honda Accord (a fine piece of shit) and use the CLUB steering lock, effective so far. Quote
EWolfe Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 (edited) Bad news - I am SO GLAD to be out of the city. I am reminded of it every casual drive to and from work, and two lights in a 15 minute commute. Edited February 4, 2004 by MisterE Quote

marylou Posted February 4, 2004 Author Posted February 4, 2004 Heh, police called a couple hours ago. Picked up my beloved old s00b about 6 blocks from home, minus her (new) CD player, some burned CDs, and my parking change. The guys were nice enough to leave my Forest Pass, my Serengeti sunglasses and strangely they didn't steal my slowshoes. They also were nice enough to park it in someone else's off-street parking so it would get called in ASAP. The locks weren't broken, and they left it locked. Must be that notorious Seattle politeness thing. Could have been a lot worse. Quote
